Joe Rogan Podcast, check it out.
The Joe Rogan Experience.
Train by day, Joe Rogan Podcast by night, all day.
He is the one of the hottest up-and-coming stand-up comics in the world.
You might know him from the Kill Tony Podcast or numerous other things.
Please welcome Tony Hinchcliffe.
Yeah.
That's my attempt at an intro.
I'm going to do that for every episode.
Just introduce the people while they're right there so they have to look at me.
Make a weird, uncomfortable moment.
You can do the radio voice and I just leave the logo on.
Hey, I can.
Very nice.
All right.
Ladies and gentlemen.
Yes.
Radio voice.
Do you guys have sound in your headphones?
You don't hear anything?
Not really.
Oh, crank the volume up.
See the volume?
Two, two, two, two, two.
Okay, there it is.
Yeah, there was some weird crackling.
So, Jamie has to monkey with some things.
Make it happen.
Hey, buddy.
How are you doing?
Hey, good to be here.
Welcome to Texas.
You're here.
Dude, we need to have a celebratory adult beverage.
Okay.
You said okay like you're about to get punched in the arm.
Texas whiskey.
Here we go again.
Come on, bro.
This is your, you live here now.
It's very exciting.
Amazing transition.
Dude, it's begun.
Salute.
Here we go.
Woo.
So many things are happening, ladies and gentlemen, that we can't totally talk
about yet.
But things are moving.
We got, we got pieces in play.
We got a lot of stuff happening for stand-up comedy here in Austin, Texas.
It's on the way, kids.
Woo.
Very exciting stuff.
So exciting.
Yeah.
So, uh, Tim Dillon is, uh, he's in.
You're in.
Segura's in.
Segura, poor Segura.
Did you see Segura broke his fucking arm?
Yeah, what happened?
And blew his knee out.
I don't, I don't even get it.
Dunking.
Him and Bert were playing basketball, getting real competitive, and he was dunking.
Blew his patella tendon out, which is the huge tendon in the front of your knee
that connects your kneecap.
And then, on his way down, fell and snapped his arm in half.
It's crazy that that would happen.
That's his arm.
Obese guys dunking basketballs.
How dare you?
How dare you when he's injured?
I mean, look at the, look how swollen.
That's just not even swollen.
That's just fat above his elbow there.
So rude.
So, so rude.
I mean, these guys are huge.
Look, look at that arm.
That arm is fucked up.
That is a giant scar.
That is an entire length from his elbow all the way to his shoulder.
So they open you up like a fish and then they have to put plates and shit in
there and screws.
Yikes.
Crazy.
This is why I don't do any of that physical stuff.
Stick to golf.
Well, that was the last straw for you.
They closed golf in LA.
Gone.
How'd they close golf?
I know.
How can they close golf?
There's, that makes zero sense.
There's no way anybody's caught it out there.
It's impossible.
You're outside.
You're not anywhere near anybody.
Yep.
You literally, they're over way the fuck over there.
Even the people that you play with, those people, naturally, you're going to be
at least
10 feet away from them the whole time.
There's other solutions that aren't going to cripple the economy too.
Like these goddamn rapid tests are available.
They're available.
Tonight at the show that you and I are doing with Chappelle and Donnell Rawlings,
they're
going to test everyone in the whole audience.
That's 300 fucking people.
You're telling me you can't do that at a golf course?
How come we did it here?
How come we just did it here?
We did it with the security guys.
We did it with everybody except Jamie.
Well, Jamie even did it.
Jamie found out he's got the, he's got them nice anti-bodies.
Nice.
You could spit in Jamie's mouth.
He ain't going to catch it.
Really?
Let's try it.
So he said that sounded so gay.
That's the way I sounded all the time with everything.
But it was like, really?
Let's try it.
It was like the beginning of a porno.
No hesitation.
Yeah.
So, yeah.
I mean, I don't understand their strategy.
I don't understand why they think this is okay to do.
I don't get it.
I really don't.
There's a difference in the mentality there in LA about the disease.
It's that they're treating it like it's a monster.
Whereas out here, they're treating it like it's a disease.
Out here, they're treating it like it's a bad flu.
They're treating it like what the statistics and what the data shows.
It's not good if you catch it.
It's not good.
But if you're young and you're healthy and you take care of yourself, and then
the deaths
are much lower than they've been before because they know how to treat it
better.
The treatments are available.
They're better.
I just don't.
Look, I don't think it's something I want to catch.
I don't think it's something that you should catch.
It's not good.
I think you should take precautions.
But you can do that and still open up businesses, and you've got to give people
the opportunity
to do what they want to do.
You've got to give people the chance to make up their own mind, make up their
own decisions.
And for whatever reason, L.A. does not want to do that.
100%.
It's so shocking what's going on there.
And from some of my own research, which is crazy.
You do research?
I'm the one researching it, yeah.
You do in science?
A little bit.
I get stoned and go to the CDC website and look into these things.
And one of the main things is that it's not even hitting the areas that are
completely closed.
L.A. County is so spread, they're closing the whole thing.
But so many of the cases are coming east of downtown and east of where we work
and live so often.
And 70% to 80% of the cases in L.A. are Latino people, and nobody's talking
about it.
And no one's talking directly to them about it.
I just typed in L.A. County, and this is just popping up.
In alarming shift, Latinos getting coronavirus at more than double the rate of
whites in L.A. County.
By the way, thank you, KTLA, for not saying Latinx people.
Do you know who fucking hates Latinx more than anybody?
Latinos.
They do not like that shit.
What is that?
It's some new nonsense woke horse shit where they're trying to non-gender
because it's like Latino, Latina.
They're trying to take away gender from Latin people, so they're calling it
Latinx.
Oh, boy.
It's a part of the language.
It's a part of Spanish.
There's a way to say male and female in Spanish.
Latina, Latino.
I mean, this is a part of their fucking culture.
And they're trying to erase it with wokeness.
I wonder, I think there's probably a bunch of factors, but some of them is that
a lot of Latino folks tend to live with their families.
They tend to have a lot of people under one roof.
And then on top of that, I would imagine it's a vitamin D thing as well because
folks with darker skin just in general are more protected from sunlight.
They're more protected from the dangers of sunlight, right, because of melanin.
But because of that, it's more difficult for their body to produce vitamin D.
My friend Moshe, when he was a doctor in New York, he said that he would detect,
they would do tests on black folks there, and they would have undetectable
levels of vitamin D.
He said some of them, like, literally, you couldn't detect the level.
It was that low.
You know, he's telling these people, like, you have to take vitamin D.
It's, like, it's very important because, look, it's fantastic to have dark skin
if you live in Africa.
It protects you from, you know, you and I would be fucked.
Right.
Or, you know, it would really be fucked is, like, Santino.
He'd be fucked.
He would burst into flames.
I would, I'll tan up.
I'll tan up pretty, every single step of my vitiligo spots, I'll tan up pretty
good.
But Santino, like, Louis C. Gay, he'll burst right into flames.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, those guys are fucked.
But, you know, dark folks have no problem with it.
I mean, their body's protected because of the melanin.
But that melanin also prevents you from absorbing vitamin D at the same rate.
Like, when you see a really white guy, like, from Scotland or something like
that, the reason why they're so fucking pale is that over generation after
generation,
their bodies have evolved to be, like, a fucking, like, a solar panel for
vitamin D.
Right.
You know, they're just all white.
Yeah.
That's what it is.
I mean, that's literally why their skin is that color.
It's just a vitamin D thing.
Crazy.
Yeah.
So crazy.
So, for Latino folks, you know, tend to be on the darker side.
It's probably, like, for white folks, it's a real issue.
It's particularly for white folks who don't go outside.
But for Latino folks, it's probably a big issue.
But it's just funny to me because no one's talking to them directly.
When the governor Newsom gives his briefings and all this.
And even that, I feel like that's the first article I've ever seen about
anything.
And there it is almost probably recent.
But it's been this way the entire time.
And also, those numbers, the percentage of the people that have gotten it in L.A.,
those numbers are also the ones that they know for sure are Latino or Latina or
Latinx or whatever.
Don't say it.
Don't say it.
But if you look underneath that, there's a large number of unknown.
And those unknowns, my guess, is mostly Latino and Latina.
Because how would you not know what ethnicity they are?
You know what I mean?
Maybe they don't give that information because they don't want to say or want
to.
Maybe they're illegal.
Dude, you really are doing research.
Look at you.
You're looking for correlating factors.
The first month of this thing, I was trying to figure out the cure, man.
I'm in there messing with mixing things up.
No one's been more desperate than stand-ups looking to get on stage.
Do you remember when you were starting out, when you were like an open-miker,
and you'd go to a show, like an open-mic night, and hoping you could get up,
and maybe you couldn't.
And you'd see people get up, and some of them would do well, and some of them
wouldn't.
And you'd be sitting there just dying to get up.
Do you remember that feeling?
Oh, yeah.
It's a crazy feeling.
Yeah.
I never let go of that.
Absolutely.
Those were, I mean, bicycle trips and bus rides and everything.
I mean, those were crazy, crazy days.
Sometimes we would wait out.
I have very clear memories of me, Jamar, Gerard, all of us waiting out on the
sidewalk during the daytime.
I mean, the sun beating down on us.
We'd have to wait outside of the improv Tuesdays at like 4 p.m., and we would
wait two hours.
That's how you got on the 6 p.m. open mic, was just by waiting outside.
Is Jamar the most shredded stand-up comic ever?
Yeah.
It might be.
And somehow or another, he pulls it off.
Like, he goes on stage with no shirt on, just jacked.
Jacked and shredded.
Yeah.
And accessories go well with him.
A giant chain, a mohawk for no reason.
Maybe he glues that mohawk on his head.
Isn't he taking an amateur fight?
I think so.
Yeah.
Did he do it already?
Do you know?
I think so.
I don't know what happened, though.
I'm not sure.
I did a show.
He looks like he fucked some people up.
Yeah.
Yeah, for sure.
I did a show in his living room.
No!
Yeah, he started doing a living room show.
I mean, you want to talk about the shadiest super spreader thing that I've done
during this
whole time.
He asked me, and you know, we've been friends for, what, 13 years?
I mean, he never asks for anything, but he wanted me to do this show.
I agreed to it.
It was one of those ones where I forgot that I had it.
He's like, hey, you still coming?
I'm like, am I placed it in the afternoon?
I'm like, yeah, man.
I sent the address.
What time is this?
It was like an afternoon thing.
It was like four to six or something.
How many people were in the audience?
He's got one coming up.
I'm not going to put it online because it's got his address on it.
Oh, okay.
Apartment show jammers.
He put that on Instagram?
Yeah.
Oh, well, put his Instagram.
This is dumb motherfuckers crazy enough to put his Instagram online.
But look, he's got a little-
Don't put his-
Don't show everybody his address.
No.
He's g
